A Precious Pearl in the Imperial City - Chapter 99

When Wang Chen saw Ming Jingzhou and took a few yellowed books from him, Wang Chen understood a truth. If you can run away from your father, you can’t run away from your father-in-law. There is always someone who can make him write like flying.

“Father, what book is this?” Jiuzhu took a book curiously and opened it. After a while, he returned the book to Wang Chen, and said with a bitter expression: “I know all the words on it, but I can’t understand a word. Your Highness. Don’t you have a headache when you read this kind of book all day?”

“Why is this difficult?” Seeing the small eyes of Jiuzhu worshiping, Wang Chen was instantly refreshed and full of energy: “I will tell you this evening?”

“Okay, okay.” Jiuzhu’s big eyes flashed with brilliant light: “His Royal Highness is amazing!”

“What’s this.” Chen Wang lifted his chin slightly: “It’s not worth mentioning.”

A man who is admired by his wife is an excellent man.

Ming Jingzhou watched this scene with a smile on his face.

It turns out that no matter how rebellious men are, they are likely to make compromises because of a look in their eyes.

At this moment, as a father, he finally relieved himself completely.

Being a man, changing his habit and striving to do better, just to get her admired look, shows that this woman already has the most unique position in his heart.

That kind of thing is often called-love.

“His Royal Highness, the book has been delivered, the next official is leaving.” He got up to leave.

Seeing that he was leaving, Jiuzhu wanted to keep him for dinner, Ming Jingzhou refused: “Your brother is handling the case at Dali Temple today, and it is very late to return home. I will go back to accompany your mother for dinner.”

Hearing this, Jiuzhu no longer wanted to stay, and smiled and nodded: “Daddy did the right thing. You can’t let your mother eat alone.”

“I’ll send off my father-in-law.” Wang Chen stood up and whispered in Jiuzhu’s ear: “At night… I will give you a book.”

After speaking, smiled and walked away.

Jiuzhu was stunned, then slowly covered his face.

Her Royal Highness, the little fairy male, was so serious just now!

“Father-in-law.” Walking out of the Kylin Palace, Wang Chen said: “My father asked me to perform the worship service on his behalf, and I agreed.”

Ming Jingzhou stopped. He and Wang Chen had always maintained the distance between the minister and the prince. No matter how he looked at it, he could not be called the word “confidential” in front of Wang Chen. He did not expect Chen. The king will tell him what his Majesty has not made public.

“His Majesty is already an indomitable adult. As a child of your Majesty, it is not wrong for you to go down and worship on your behalf.” Ming Jingzhou arched his hands: “The officer believes that Your Highness can do your best.”

The wind blew their robes, and Wang Chen was silent for a moment: “I just want to be the father’s child.”

“His Majesty has always been a good boy of His Majesty.” Ming Jingzhou understood Wang Chen’s meaning, “Your Majesty thinks, Your Majesty thinks so too.”

Wang Chen looked at him without speaking.

After that, he told Wang Chen: “His Royal Highness, the next official retire.”

“I thought that the father-in-law’s ideas would be different from the father’s emperor.”

“Originally it might be different, but when His Royal Highness stepped into the door of the Ministry of Rites and carefully recited what the Xiaguan gave you, the Xiaguan’s thoughts changed a lot.” Ming Jingzhou was silent for a moment: “The Xiaguan is on Your Highness, look. Here are some beautiful qualities of your majesty.”

“In the past, it was the fault of the official.” Ming Jingzhou gave a big gift: “People say it is terrible, and everyone agrees. The official also made such a mistake.”

Wang Chen returned to the younger generation: “Father-in-law is right, this king is really not learned or skillful.”

“No, your Royal Highness has a sincere and benevolent heart.” During this period of time, he has carefully checked the rumors related to the Chen Wang, what bullied the literati, bullied the princes of the family, and humiliated the generals, and found that everything happened for a reason.

The literati who was oppressed by him was a lover who deceived a woman’s feelings.

The prince of the family who was punished by him hurt a child with a horse.

The military commander who was humiliated by him spoke ill of Queen Su in private and tried to force the Liang family woman to be a concubine.

Every piece, every piece, has become evidence of Wang Chen’s domineering. Every force is eager to suppress his reputation.

What was wrong was not the simple and straightforward Chen Wang, but the whitewashing of filth.

And although he took into account the friendship between the emperor and his ministers, he never said in the court that Wang Chen was wrong, but he had never learned about Wang Chen.

The arrogance in the literati’s bones made him prejudice against Chen Wang. When he had a prejudice against Chen Wang, he didn’t know that the other party was his daughter’s savior.

If it weren’t for Jiuzhu, perhaps he still wouldn’t know the advantages of King Chen.

“Father-in-law, you today…” Why do you praise him so much?

Are there more books waiting for him to copy?

Chen Wang was worried.

“His Royal Highness, don’t worry, there are officials from the Ministry of Etiquette.” Ming Jingzhou smiled heartily: “If there are officials from the Ministry of Etiquette, no one wants to be a man.”

He sent Ming Jingzhou to the gate of the palace. On the way back, Wang Chen met Wang Huai and Princess Huai who had just come out of the harem.

Wang Huai’s complexion didn’t look very good, and there were some medicine stains on the cuffs.

“Fifth brother.” Seeing Wang Chen, Wang Huai reluctantly forced a smile.

“Big Brother, Sister-in-law.” Wang Chen gave a perfunctory salute.

Wang Huai didn’t care. For him, Yun Duqing was able to salute him perfunctorily, and he was already satisfied: “Where did the fifth brother come from?”

“I just sent my father-in-law out of the Vermilion Bird Gate.” Wang Chen glanced at the fatigue on Wang Huai’s face: “Brother, take a rest.”

“Thank you fifth brother.” Princess Huai said first: “The mother and concubine have been seriously ill in the past few days, and the prince is worried about the mother and concubine’s body.

“Fei Xu is sick again?”

The word “again” is full of multiple meanings.

He remembered that Concubine Xu was not in good health and was always sick, but she had survived all these years.

Now that Princess Huai said she was sick, Wang Chen was not surprised at all.

“Fifth brother.” Wang Huai said: “I heard that there is an old royal doctor in the Taiyuan Hospital. In these years, except for the pulse of the father and the queen, he has not given any other treatment. The eldest brother is brazen, please help me treat this old man. The imperial doctor, please come to Zhaoxiang Palace to see a doctor for my mother and concubine.”

The old imperial doctor that Wang Huai said was over 90 years old, and his children and grandchildren were around his knees, and his spirits were okay.

The queen father and mother couldn’t bear his age and was still walking in the palace, so she said to the outside that she only asked the empress for pulse, but in fact, in the past few years, he has never asked him to do anything.

Wang Chen did not expect that Wang Huai would make such a request with him, and the feelings between their brothers were not much better.

Could it be the brotherhood that I had accumulated in Yun Yanze’s house some time ago by eating a warm pot together?

“I can’t take charge of this matter. The old imperial doctor is old. If the eldest brother really wants to invite him into the palace, he will send someone to take him into the palace.” Wang Chen did not embarrass him: “Father and queen, I will help Big brother said. But no matter whether the old doctor is willing to enter the palace, you can’t embarrass him, big brother.”

“Thank you five brothers.” Wang Huai made a heartfelt gesture to Wang Chen, his spine bends deeply.

“Concubine Xu’s treatment is important.” Wang Chen waved his hand, not taking this matter to heart.

Wang Huai looked at his leaving back, and didn’t know what he was thinking about. After a long time, he said to the Princess, who was also tired, “You first go to Zhang Sixth Palace and rest. I will send someone to pick up the old imperial doctor.”

Princess Huai looked at the bruises in his eyes and sighed: “Prince, the concubine is not in good health. You can’t exhaust yourself.”

“I know it all.” Wang Huai has never been careful enough, and he didn’t notice the warmth under his princess’ eyes, so he hurled people back to sleep.

He is a big man, and a woman can’t compare to a man in terms of physical strength, so let her rest.

Arranged for someone to pick up the old imperial doctor, and Wang Huai went back to Zhaoxiang Palace.

Concubine Xu was already awake, sitting leaning on the head of the bed, the room was filled with a bitter medicine.

“Mother concubine, are you mentally better?” Wang Huai put down the things in his hand and strode to Concubine Xu’s side.

“It’s okay, these are old problems for many years.” Xu Fei coughed a few times: “Just let the princess wait here. Go back and take a good rest.”

“She doesn’t have a son who understands your preferences.” Wang Huai did not understand the meaning of Xu Fei’s words, and directly rejected her proposal: “Bring the medicine, and the son will wait for you to take the medicine.”

The palace lady looked at Concubine Xu, and Concubine Xu nodded.

“My son met my fifth brother in the palace just now.” After feeding the medicine, Wang Huai put down the bowl: “His relationship with the Ming family seems to be pretty good.”

Concubine Xu smiled weakly: “It seems that the Ming family values ​​Ming Jiuzhu’s daughter very seriously.”

“I originally thought that the Ming family would abandon the daughter of Ming Jiuzhu for the sake of his own reputation. It was his son who guessed wrong.” He struggled and finally turned into peace: “Now the fifth brother is the only son of our brothers, and he has a father. The emperor’s favor, the son-chen had to put his mind down.”

Perhaps as early as the day when his father became king, he should have given up when he saw his father wearing a dragon robe and carrying his fifth younger brother behind him.

Xu Fei coughed a few times without speaking.

“The mother concubine is seriously ill, and my son shouldn’t tell you this.” Seeing the mother concubine’s face was particularly ugly, Wang Huai took the candied fruit for her to eat: “I just begged the fifth brother to let him Go and intercede with the emperor, and ask the old imperial doctor who is over ninety years old to check your pulse…”

Concubine Xu grabbed his hand: “I have all minor problems, so I can’t bother this old man.”

“You are so ill, how can you say that it is a minor illness?” Wang Huai said: “Mother concubine, my son knows that you are a considerate person, but for your health, my son must be willful once.”

“Don’t worry, my son has sent someone to pick him up, so he won’t be tired of the old doctor.”

“What?” Concubine Xu took hold of Wang Huai’s hand and increased her strength a bit, pulling the back of Wang Huai’s hand pain: “You said he was already on the road?”

“Calculating the time, it’s almost the same.” Wang Huai looked down at the sore hand, not daring to call it hurt. I was a little happy, the mother concubine’s hands were so strong, indicating that the condition had not worsened.

“No.” Xu Fei sent the hand of Wang Huai: “Stay on shore and send someone to send the old imperial doctor back. I don’t need him to check the pulse here.”

She knew that this old imperial doctor was an expert who could be called a master of Chinese medicine, no matter what the disease, as long as he can get the pulse clearly.

“Why?” Wang Huai puzzled: “Are you worried about the punishment of the father and the queen? Don’t worry about that. The fifth brother is the kind of person who doesn’t agree and never nods, and promises not to fool people…”

“I said no, I just can’t!” Xu Fei raised her voice: “Stay ashore, listen to the mother and concubine, and send the old imperial doctor back.”

When Concubine Xu’s voice was raised, it sounded a bit sharp and harsh, Wang Huai seemed to think of something, and his expression gradually changed: “Okay.”

The room became quiet, and Concubine Xu raised her hand to let the other palace members retreat: “It seems that you have already guessed it?”

Wang Huai’s lips moved, without speaking.

At this moment, the eunuch’s voice sounded outside the house: “Master, Royal Doctor Liu is unwell and unable to go out.”

Concubine Xu looked relaxed.

“But his old man said that his granddaughter inherited his mantle, do you want to summon her?”

“A woman, what kind of disease can you see.” Across the door, Wang Huai said, “Since Mr. Liu is unwell, wait for him to recover, and then invite him into the palace.
